This year we experimented with having each member bring in three book choices when it was their turn to present options. These included one classic, one new release, and one free choice. To finish out the year’s book choices, we chose to pick a second chance from each of our three categories. Because we were also such a small group this time, each person picked two books per category which allowed us to avoid ties and runoff votes.
